Create PowerShell install script

[sitiom]

I would like to have a quick way to install my dotfiles in Windows without needing MSYS2 or Git Bash. This would prove quite useful.

Here's a simple uninstall script for PowerShell that only depends on powershell-yaml.

$CONFIG = "install.conf.yaml"

$confObj = ConvertFrom-Yaml ([string](Get-Content $CONFIG -Raw))
foreach ($target in ($confObj | Where-Object Keys -eq link).Values.Keys) {
    if ((Get-Item $target -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).LinkType -eq "SymbolicLink") {
        Write-Host "Removing $target" -ForegroundColor Red
        Remove-Item $target
    }
}

This looks interesting, thanks for the pull request! It might be a little bit of time until I can review it. I think it might be neat to include it in Dotbot as well (rather than just this dotfiles template).

I don't want to include an uninstall script (because in general, an arbitrary install can't be un-done effectively) along with Dotbot, but there's one available in the wiki for people who want it. You could add your PowerShell version there.

Alright, added it to the wiki

Oh wait, I didn't notice it was there in the dotbot repo as well. Will do
